Yes!

(and I'm missing one)

Yah I picked a tough part. Ben inspired the choice. Plus it happend to
be on workbench.

I currently have servo/pedals/Al.frame out and will rebuild.

Of note, the pedal bushings are pricey. ($16 Can./ea. 2 per pedal)

And if one is ever doing this job, make sure hole that accepts pin to
connect to brake or clutch MC clevis, isn't really worn. Hole in my
clutch pedal has less than 1/8" left!

I will make a replacement piece out of mild steel rod. I hope to get
it welded in, then drilled out.
